                       In a letter received from the Archdiocese of Boston which was sent in responce to an inquiry from our genealogist, Judy Wight, she received information that there was a son born of John and Winifred Moloy on the 26 April 1869.  His name was called Cornelius Moloy.  Threre are two reasons why I think they are members of my family.  First my grandmothers grandfather was Cornelius Molloy.  There have been several things that we have found that suggests that her father's name may have been John or Hugh Molloy.  Or it may have been John Hugh Molloy or there could have been two separate sons.  I think that John was the older brother because of the birth date of the children, and Hugh's marriage date. The fact that his name and that of his son was spelled with one l doesn't concern me since that has always been the case from one l to two ll's.  I think the error was with the recorder of the ordinance.

Saturday 5 July 1891 The Lowell Sun Obituary lists a J.H.Molloy, a watchman living at 17 Hudson St died on the 4th of July at his home.  I do not know if this is John Molloy, but I have listed it since it would seem to fit with the approximate birth date. At the funeral for Winnifred Molloy, his wife, in 1905, the funeral director was C.H. Molloy and sons.   The "H" makes me think this was John Hugh Molloy. His brother was Hugh, I guess Cornelius, the father, liked the name Hugh.
                  

                   Birth,Marriage and Death records in the possession of Richard C. Holden of
Colorado Springs, CO.
In Aunt Gerts note she said John Hugh Molloy was bedridden after his wife's
death with arthritis and died shortly after she died.  Mary Molloy was ll yrs.
of age at the time of her mothers death.  I have heard she was an orphan.  I
don't know anything about the story between this time and the time she married
Grandfather Holden....James Francis. I was baptized and did the initiatory work
for him in the Denver Temple on the 22nd of April 1994 and his endowment the
15th of November of that same year.

27 June 2002  Genealogist, Judy Wight, reveals my Grandmother, Mary Agnes Molloy's father was named Hugh Molloy not John Hugh Molloy.  She also found another child, Mary who was born 19 Dec 1870 smf forf 26 Aig 1871.  She was 8 months and 7 days at her death.  It is often Irish custom to name the next child, My Grandmother, by the same name.
